2014-10-27cpufreq: cpufreq-dt: disable unsupported OPPsLucas Stach
If the regulator connected to the CPU voltage plane doesn't support an OPP specified voltage with the acceptable tolerance it's better to just disable the OPP instead of constantly failing the voltage scaling later on. Includes a fix to move initialization of opp_freq outside the loop to avoid an endless loop from Geert Uytterhoeven.

2014-10-27mm: cma: Ensure that reservations never cross the low/high mem boundaryLaurent Pinchart
Commit 95b0e655f914 ("ARM: mm: don't limit default CMA region only to low memory") extended CMA memory reservation to allow usage of high memory. It relied on commit f7426b983a6a ("mm: cma: adjust address limit to avoid hitting low/high memory boundary") to ensure that the reserved block never crossed the low/high memory boundary. While the implementation correctly lowered the limit, it failed to consider the case where the base..limit range crossed the low/high memory boundary with enough space on each side to reserve the requested size on either low or high memory. Rework the base and limit adjustment to fix the problem. The function now starts by rejecting the reservation altogether for fixed reservations that cross the boundary, tries to reserve from high memory first and then falls back to low memory.

2014-10-27mm: cma: Always consider a 0 base address reservation as dynamicLaurent Pinchart
The fixed parameter to cma_declare_contiguous() tells the function whether the given base address must be honoured or should be considered as a hint only. The API considers a zero base address as meaning any base address, which must never be considered as a fixed value. Part of the implementation correctly checks both fixed and base != 0, but two locations check the fixed value only. Set fixed to false when base is 0 to fix that and simplify the code.

2014-10-27drm/i915: Ignore long hpds on eDP portsVille Syrjälä
Turning vdd on/off can generate a long hpd pulse on eDP ports. In order to handle hpd we would need to turn on vdd to perform aux transfers. This would lead to an endless cycle of "vdd off -> long hpd -> vdd on -> detect -> vdd off -> ..." So ignore long hpd pulses on eDP ports. eDP panels should be physically tied to the machine anyway so they should not actually disappear and thus don't need long hpd handling. Short hpds are still needed for link re-train and whatnot so we can't just turn off the hpd interrupt entirely for eDP ports. Perhaps we could turn it off whenever the panel is disabled, but just ignoring the long hpd seems sufficient.

2014-10-27drm/i915: Do a dummy DPCD read before the actual readVille Syrjälä
Sometimes we seem to get utter garbage from DPCD reads. The resulting buffer is filled with the same byte, and the operation completed without errors. My HP ZR24w monitor seems particularly susceptible to this problem once it's gone into a sleep mode. The issue seems to happen only for the first AUX message that wakes the sink up. But as the first AUX read we often do is the DPCD receiver cap it does wreak a bit of havoc with subsequent link training etc. when the receiver cap bw/lane/etc. information is garbage. A sufficient workaround seems to be to perform a single byte dummy read before reading the actual data. I suppose that just wakes up the sink sufficiently and we can just throw away the returned data in case it's crap. DP_DPCD_REV seems like a sufficiently safe location to read here.

Commit c387f07e6205 (clocksource: arm_arch_timer: Discard unavailable timers correctly) changed the way the driver makes sure both the memory and system-register timers have been probed before finalizing the probing. There is a interesting flaw in this logic that leads to this final step never to be executed. Things seems to work pretty well until something actually needs the data that is produced during this final stage. For example, KVM explodes on the first run of a guest when executed on a platform that has both memory and sysreg nodes (Juno, for example). Just fix the damned logic, and enjoy booting VMs again.

free_pi_state and exit_pi_state_list both clean up futex_pi_state's. exit_pi_state_list takes the hb lock first, and most callers of free_pi_state do too. requeue_pi doesn't, which means free_pi_state can free the pi_state out from under exit_pi_state_list.

2014-10-25xen-netback: reintroduce guest Rx stall detectionDavid Vrabel
If a frontend not receiving packets it is useful to detect this and turn off the carrier so packets are dropped early instead of being queued and drained when they expire. A to-guest queue is stalled if it doesn't have enough free slots for a an extended period of time (default 60 s). If at least one queue is stalled, the carrier is turned off (in the expectation that the other queues will soon stall as well). The carrier is only turned on once all queues are ready. When the frontend connects, all the queues start in the stalled state and only become ready once the frontend queues enough Rx requests.

2014-10-25xen-netback: fix unlimited guest Rx internal queue and carrier flappingDavid Vrabel
Netback needs to discard old to-guest skb's (guest Rx queue drain) and it needs detect guest Rx stalls (to disable the carrier so packets are discarded earlier), but the current implementation is very broken. 1. The check in hard_start_xmit of the slot availability did not consider the number of packets that were already in the guest Rx queue. This could allow the queue to grow without bound. The guest stops consuming packets and the ring was allowed to fill leaving S slot free. Netback queues a packet requiring more than S slots (ensuring that the ring stays with S slots free). Netback queue indefinately packets provided that then require S or fewer slots. 2. The Rx stall detection is not triggered in this case since the (host) Tx queue is not stopped. 3. If the Tx queue is stopped and a guest Rx interrupt occurs, netback will consider this an Rx purge event which may result in it taking the carrier down unnecessarily. It also considers a queue with only 1 slot free as unstalled (even though the next packet might not fit in this). The internal guest Rx queue is limited by a byte length (to 512 Kib, enough for half the ring). The (host) Tx queue is stopped and started based on this limit. This sets an upper bound on the amount of memory used by packets on the internal queue. This allows the estimatation of the number of slots for an skb to be removed (it wasn't a very good estimate anyway). Instead, the guest Rx thread just waits for enough free slots for a maximum sized packet. skbs queued on the internal queue have an 'expires' time (set to the current time plus the drain timeout). The guest Rx thread will detect when the skb at the head of the queue has expired and discard expired skbs. This sets a clear upper bound on the length of time an skb can be queued for. For a guest being destroyed the maximum time needed to wait for all the packets it sent to be dropped is still the drain timeout (10 s) since it will not be sending new packets. Rx stall detection is reintroduced in a later commit. Signed-off-by: David Vrabel <david.vrabel@citrix.com> Reviewed-by: Wei Liu <wei.liu2@citrix.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2014-10-25xen-netback: make feature-rx-notify mandatoryDavid Vrabel
Frontends that do not provide feature-rx-notify may stall because netback depends on the notification from frontend to wake the guest Rx thread (even if can_queue is false). This could be fixed but feature-rx-notify was introduced in 2006 and I am not aware of any frontends that do not implement this.

2014-10-25vdso: don't require 64-bit math in standalone testJeff Mahoney
The use of 64-bit math on i386 causes build failures: vdso_standalone_test_x86.c:(.text+0x101): undefined reference to `__umoddi3' vdso_standalone_test_x86.c:(.text+0x12d): undefined reference to `__udivdi3' Commit adb19fb66ee (Documentation: add makefiles for more targets) is now building this by default, so it's failing the kernel build entirely. Switching the declaration from uint64_t to time_t does the right thing and handles the x32 case automatically.

2014-10-25ARM: dts: imx28-evk: Let i2c0 run at 100kHzFabio Estevam
Commit 78b81f4666fb ("ARM: dts: imx28-evk: Run I2C0 at 400kHz") caused issues when doing the following sequence in loop: - Boot the kernel - Perform audio playback - Reboot the system via 'reboot' command In many times the audio card cannot be probed, which causes playback to fail. After restoring to the original i2c0 frequency of 100kHz there is no such problem anymore. This reverts commit 78b81f4666fbb22a20b1e63e5baf197ad2e90e88.

2014-10-25clockevents: Prevent shift out of boundsThomas Gleixner
Andrey reported that on a kernel with UBSan enabled he found: UBSan: Undefined behaviour in ../kernel/time/clockevents.c:75:34 I guess it should be 1ULL here instead of 1U: (!ismax || evt->mult <= (1U << evt->shift))) That's indeed the correct solution because shift might be 32.

2014-10-25posix-timers: Fix stack info leak in timer_create()Mathias Krause
If userland creates a timer without specifying a sigevent info, we'll create one ourself, using a stack local variable. Particularly will we use the timer ID as sival_int. But as sigev_value is a union containing a pointer and an int, that assignment will only partially initialize sigev_value on systems where the size of a pointer is bigger than the size of an int. On such systems we'll copy the uninitialized stack bytes from the timer_create() call to userland when the timer actually fires and we're going to deliver the signal. Initialize sigev_value with 0 to plug the stack info leak. Found in the PaX patch, written by the PaX Team. Fixes: 5a9fa7307285 ("posix-timers: kill ->it_sigev_signo and...")
